Portraits of Influential Chinese Educators

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the art of pen-portraits, the book explores how these literary representations of eleven influential educators provide deeper insights into character and context than traditional biographies or caricatures. By carefully selecting content and style, the author, Professor Ruth Hayhoe, demonstrates the significance of methodological processes in creating multi-layered portraits. This collection not only enriches the literature of comparative education but also highlights the interplay between foreground and background, enhancing the understanding of each educator's impact and circumstances.
